Just returned from Amsterdam, where I presented my poster at #ECTE2025! 🌿🏝️ It showcases part of my PhD research: 10 years of monitoring cavity-nesting #Hymenoptera in SE China and their multitrophic interactions. Great to share and discuss science! @multitroph.bsky.social

Trump team orders huge government layoffs: how science could fare
Nature talks with scientists inside US agencies about what the latest directive could mean for their staff members and budgets.
Agencies across the US government have been ordered to initiate another punishing round of layoffs at the same time Congress is moving forward with a plan to slash their budgets — a potential blow to science.

And, of course, no pollinators, no fruit, no seeds for frugivores.”Pas de bras, pas de chocolat” or in other words: “No bees, butterflies, moths, or flies, no cocoa fruit in the canopy! #ECTE2025 @soctropecol.bsky.social

So far, #ECTE2025 @soctropecol.bsky.social has been very good after two days of intense oral and poster sessions. These two young fellows (Shuiqing He and Alessandro Mainardi) are the future of tropical ecology (with camtraps in the canopy).

Nothing better for kicking off our last day of #ECTE2025 (and recover from the great gala dinner) than start the day listening to the energetic @lourens.poorter.bsky.social talking about succession

We need large fruits, large seeds, and large animals to disperse them away to restore forests and stock carbon, as well as many recruits as Master and PhD 🧑🎓 to replace the aging academic community. #ECTE2025 @soctropecol.bsky.social
